 The letter dropped from Miss Dickson's nervelcss hand, "l'ss7'
 "And 1 am not an heiress. after all! she thought. am just as poor as I was before, and here are all the dresses ordered, the most expensive mourning to be got in New York! And nobody can tell what Miss Bibbington's bill will be. Dressmakers are perfectly consci, enceless." t.=..
 And Miss Dickson burst into a shower of tears.
 She spent the next summer in her hot back room in the cheap boarding house, with an outlook on tin roofs and smoke blackened chimneys. She could not carry out the Saratoga and Lake George programs, and she had not the face to propose a visit to Apple Farm. s4..E a-H eH os
 Though, she said to herself, l am told that little Mary Ann has bought back the old place and fit ted it up beautifully. and is living there with tlle young man she has married-one MT. Pollard--a reg nlar fortune hunter, Eye no doubt in the wOrld.'
 But, in the iMense self.absorp. tiOn of her nature, Miss Dickson could never be made to understand the sort of affection which exis. ted between Reuben Pollard and his young wife--a link which Aunt Zerniah's ninety thousand dollars could neither make nor mar.-N. Y. Ledger. ..4-.

WoMAN'S LOVE.

oi say moi woman's love Is bought With vain and empty treasure. oh' say not woman's heart is caught By every idle pleasure. When first her gentle bosom knows Loves flame, it wanders never: perp. in her heart the passion glows, She loves, and loves forever. on, say not woman's false as fair, That like the bee she ranges, still seeking flowers more sweet and rare. As ficklc fancy changes. on, no. the love that first can warm Will leave her bosom never; No second passion e'er can charm; She loves, and loves forever.

PAPER MONEY CONDEMNED.
Exact Language of Jefferson,
 Webster, Pinkney, Bancroft.

The fol lowning extracts show conclusively that Jefferson. the father of the Democratic party Webster, ct al, do moi favor paper money, as legal tender, but want ed gold and silver as legal tender,
 with currency greenbacks ] bot. toned on coin. Capt Ansley. in hs quotations garbles Jefferson's words, as one can see by reading the first extract below, and com pairing with his from same volume and letter. Jefferson, and the Democratic party of to day, favor greenbacks, but not as an exclu- sivc legal tender money, like Capt A, who quotes from Jeff'erson's letters fin garbled way) written during the war of 1872; and Cal houn's speech delivered during the panic of 1857, when they Jeff erson and CalhOun) did favor re- deamdble paper money. But tor the Democratic party of today. there would be no greenbacks in circulation. whereas we now have S346. .0OO, ,O00, and, but for it silver would have remained demonetized from 1878 to the present time and there woud have peen no real money save gold coin. These truths can't be gainsaid. But without fur. ther comment, we give below, the extracts exact, in their proper connections: as
 "Every one knows, that although not literally, it is nearly true, tn tt
 every laper dollar emitted ban ishes a silver one from inc circu- lation. A nation, therefore, mak ing it's purchases and payments
 with bills fitted for circulation, ! thrusts an equal sum of coin out of circulation."-J effersOns works, Vol. VI P. 139. ....5-.s.a

Vol. " P. 26O. '''
 "Most unquestionably there is no legal tender, and there can be no legal tender, in this country, under the authority of this gov. ernment or any other, but gold 1, and silver coin, either the coinage of our own hints, or foreign coins, |. at rates regulated by congress."- , Daniel Webster.

NOT AN HEIRESS.
The Story of Miss Dickson's Leg,
 dcy.

"Yes, said Miss Dickson; ] think now that 1 can afford to see a little of the world. I have al. ways been tucked down in cheap boarding house, doing embroidery on the sly for fancy stores and keeping up l great appearance on very slim foundation, and 1 am tired of this sort of business. Now l can expand into ladyw
 Old Aunt Zeruiah Do,ld, down in New Jersey. had been as long in dying as if she were a blood re. lation to the Wandering Jew; but the unavoidable moment had come at last, and she had paid Natures debt mwillingly enough, and Miss Dickson was to be her heiress.
 "There must be hundred thou. sand dollars at least, said Miss Dickinson. Good land of liberty! and up to this time Fve been counting my pennies and trying to make both ends meet, to keep out of the poor house. It don't seem possible. What world this is."
 Mary Ann Dickson, usually call ed Aunt Polly," looked at her self in the glass. She was not d beauty, and It was very plain she never could be one; but there were possibilities that she might be what was called stylish, and that was the next best thing.
 Just about this time her neice, Mary Ann, came up from the old farm and, as was natural enough, proceeded straight to Aunt POlly's boarding house for refuge.
 Aunt Polly regarded her rather sourly.
 "What brings you here, child! Aud now of all times in the world. she said" .If.t
 "Grandfather is dead, explained the child, tinidly, and the old house is sold, and 1 had nowhere else 10 go; and the neighbors said there would be lots of ways for d strong girl like me to earn her liv' ing in New York"
 "The neighbors indeed! sputter- ed Miss Dickson. l wish the neighbors would mind their own business. What on earth am l te do with great girl like you"
 Little Mary Ann burst into tears.
 "Oh, 1 am so sorry l came! said she. am sorry l came! But, you know, you have spent three sum mers at Apple Farm, and you al ways said you'd be glad to see me when l came to the city"
 Miss Dickson made grlmace.
 "What can't bc cured must be endure,," said she. And l sup pose you'll have to stay. But mind, child, no Aunt Pollying me 1 am Miss Dickson now and you are my waid."
 "Your maid, Aunt--l mean Miss Dickson"
 "Yes, nodded Miss Dickson You expect to. have to work fol a living, don't youw
 "Oh, yes; but"
 There are no butts, imperiOusly interposed Miss Dickson. Do you suppose can support you in idle nesss I wonder at the impudenct of some folks"
 "I am willing to work, sobbeo little Mary Ann"
 "Of course l shall not pay you any wages. Nobody in their sen ses would expect that, when you are just out of the backwOods, ant will have to be taught everything If there is any question of money it is that ought to be paid, l think. But you'll have your boart and clothes-thcre will always be enough of my old gowns to keep you locking respectable. And, a' am going to travel, you will set the world, with no expense t' yourself"

One View of Indian Advancement.

have lived in the Indian Territory for
number Of years and have carefully
watched the condition of the Indians, both
of the wild and civilized tribes, and must
say that cannot see the smallest signs of
advance or improvement in their condi-
ton. have heard on all sides when in
the east the condition of the Creeks, Cher
okees and Choctaws quoted rs an instance
of what the wild tribes are capable of
when placed in proper environment and
surrounded by civihzing influences.
This argument is specious, and one
calculated to deceive those unfamiliar
with the subject. When the facts Of the
case are clearly stated the fallacy of this
argument is at once apparent The Indi-
ans of Georgia and Alabama never were
nomadic, always lived in villages, and
raised crops, Today they are exactly the
same Indians they were when they left
their homes. They have not made one
stepin advance, and show not the small est
sign of ever attaining any higher degree
of civilization than they now possess.
Although on a higher plane, they are as
immovably fixed in their present condition
as the plains and the mountain tribes, and
instead of furnishing evidence of the sus-
ceptibility TO civilization of the Indians,
are cited as proof TO the direct contrary.
AS far as advancement is concerned, the
Indians are hopeless, and those well mean
ing but misguided philanthropists who are
endeavoring to make white men of them
are utterly wasting much valuable time
and energy George n. Wilson in Globe

One day, bright day, and little bird
happy and stood on log and sang all day
long. That bird doesn't know anything
about cat She thinks nobody is near to
her. But behind the near log one sly old
cat is watching She want to eat for sup
per, and she thinks about stealing all the
time The old cat came very slow, and
by and by she go after the little bird, but
she does not see him, and sang aloud
again. She sang just like this: 81 always
try to do what is right; when / ever died
/ go to heaven" That bird said these all
words, and never shall forget the bird
what it said, and these all words it said
and after two three minutes go died; that
cat jumped and catch and kill, eat all up
except left little things from bird, wings,
legs, or skin, and that bird is glad to die,
because she is very good bird. That little
bird has last time sang, and very happy
was the little bird after that. think the
old cat have good dinner and happy just
the same as bird was at first time.-Indian

It Was a Mean Trick.

There is a certain man in St. Paul
whose love of drink sometimes gets the
better of him. 1t did so the other night,
when he held bar down for several
hoars, despite the protests of his business
partner. Finally the latter called in a
member Of the Salvation army, who
promised to induce the inebriate to 60
home. The servant of the Lord pumped
down on his knees in the middle of the
bar room and began to pray. The erring
man listened attenively for a moment,
and then started for the door with the re-
mark to his partner: ''S'a 3 .ight, George,
wouldn't do-hic-sho mean thing to
--hic-you. I'm going-hic--home.' ~

the ordeal of training is severe and ardu-
